My xbox is soft modded and it is FTP to my pc (flash fxp), I have Halo 2 burned on the xbox hdd, now where do i put the modded maps that i found on the internet so i can play them,
Those .serenity files you have, you have to use a program that can patch the map using those .serenity files. You can't just put those files on your xbox and hope that they work. You have to patch the map first, and then you can put them on your xbox.
to get those actual maps u would have to add them to ur mainmenu. then when you would boot halo2 u would see them on ur mainmenu as glasswall, gate, etc... but if you dont know how to do that u can apply the .serinity to your map and then resign and FTP. Paraiso will have to be applied to zanzibar and deep darkness, gate, and glasswall will be applied to gemini. you can find serenity, map resigners, and other apps/mods at www.halomods.com then to files forum then to utilities. for the mods just go to halo 2 downloads
Also to get your maps of of your disc, just put the disc in your Xbox, and then with FTP, go to the D:/ drive, and look for the maps. The map files all end in .map, so it shouldn't be that hard to find. Just FTP them from your D:/ drive, to your PC, and then use a Serenity patch program, to patch the map.
